The help for Ten Cross(About -> Ten Cross) shows this:
--------
Temporary Spots:
Locations to place one card out of play. The spots begin the game filled. One version of the game does not allow you to put new cards into these spots once they are empty.
3.68.4. Options
No Use Temporary Spots: If checked the temporary spots may not be reused.
-----------
Not sure I follow what it's trying to say but there is no option to
check or uncheck temporary slots.
Since the temporary slots are not usable atm, I'm confirming this.
** Changed in: gnome-games (Ubuntu)
Status: Unconfirmed => Confirmed
